DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN IT!
Vegeta is going to be OCC as this is an AU but for the most part I've tried to keep him as is, because that is why we all love him right? ;)
Vegeta spent the better part of the trip home in his training room trying to keep his mind off of his sedated mate. It's been weeks since he had even gone to see her. He just couldn't stand looking at a woman that was just lying there, not talking, not moving. She just seemed dead to him and he hated it. The beeping of the computer pulled the dark prince from his thoughts.
"Simulation returning to normal"
"But I didn't turn it off"
"I did"
"Bardock, what is the meaning of this!"
"Sire, we have found Baba, my team has given her your message and she agrees to meet us back on Vegetasi. She will be there shortly after we arrive."
"Hn."
"Vegeta, if I may be so bold, perhaps you should go see Bulma, her brain activity was much higher when you went to see her."
Without thinking Vegeta had the Kakarot look alike pinned to the wall by his throat, a low growl left Vegeta's chest as a warning. Bardock never flinched once, he knew his prince was hurting, weather he would admit it or not.
"I will do as I please and no one will tell me otherwise! I will visit my mate when I see fit, now do something useful and get in touch with the palace and have a room for Baba prepared."
"Yes sire"
Vegeta let Bardock go and noticed he didn't seem afraid or intimidated in the slightest, it seems he must know the prince better than he thought. Now he was beginning to see why he trusted Bardock more than anyone else. The flame haired prince walked to his once shared room and opened the doors. It used to be elaborately decorated with paintings on the wall, pictures on shelves, expensive furniture and furs. Now it was nothing more than a bed and dresser. Without his woman to share his quarters he saw no need for anything but the basics. Vegeta let out a deep sigh and headed to take a shower. He knew he needed to go see her. It had been plaguing his mind for days, he could sense her need for him and he figured it was her powers and their new connection. His shower lasted longer than he wanted it too but his muscles were screaming and the hot water beating against them was just what he needed, after he dried and dressed he made his way to their private medical wing. He needed to contact his father after this and explain Bulma's condition and why he did not want a welcoming party when they landed. The white doors opened for him and he slapped in the face with the smell of cleaner and sanitizer. He despised that smell. The walls, floors, ceilings and cabinets were all white, which added to the bright white lighting it was seriously hurting his eyes. Vegeta made a mental note to have the walls painted and lighting changed as soon as possible. Once he reached Bulma's room he slowly pushed open the door and he sent filled his nose making him smirk.
"I've missed that woman."
Vegeta sat down next to her on the bed and began to relax now that he was lying beside her.
"Bulma, I promise you that I will fix this. I will find a way to make sure that nothing and no one will ever hurt you again. Bardock found a witch, one with incredible powers. She is arriving on planet not long after us. Bulma, I am so sorry that we have to keep you in this slumber, I would much rather have that feisty spirit of yours yelling at me than this any day. This witch Baba, she will make you better, or I will kill her."
The saddened prince continued his one way conversation and slowly sleep began to claim his eyes. There was something very comforting about being next to his mate again.
"Bardock what's going on? Why did you wake me?"
"My King we have a problem here on the ship, I assumed Prince Vegeta would have contacted you by now."
"What is it? What's going on?"
"Sire Bulma's powers have been awakened, they are far too strong for her to control, I have a witch Baba coming to help….."
"What else? I can see it in your eyes old friend"
"Vegeta, she-well while she was being held by Zarbon, he drugged her, and then while she was sleeping he raped her, your son almost killed them both thinking she allowed it. Once we got her back on the ship she completely lost control and destroyed the bedroom, her closet, her clothes, and fought your son. I have now in a medically induced coma until we can have the witch help us. Vegeta want a room prepared for her, and also does not want a welcoming party when we arrive, he doesn't want them to see the princess in such a state."
"He is?"
"Yes, Bulma and Vegeta took care of him together. Frieza is gone too. We should arrive in sixteen hours, I'm trying to be sure that is is dark when we land and late enough most will be sleeping."
"Good. I'll see to it that no one will know of the arrival, and I will personally be the one to escort you to the medical wing. I do not want anyone to see her condition."
"Agreed sire, I need to go check her brain activity. I will see you soon."
"Indeed old friend."
Bardock ended communications with the King and headed to where Bulma was being kept. He walked in to find his princess…..and prince sound asleep. Quietly as possible he checked her monitors and saw that all of her vitals were perfect. Smirking to himself he left the room.
Vegeta awoke with a start, he searched the room reaching his senses out and found nothing. Calming his breathing he looked to his side and noticed Bulma's mouth was turned up into a small smile. The first time she has moved since she's been in the coma. He smiled, leaning down Vegeta kissed her head and went off to find Bardock.
"Bardock, I assume you've reached my father?"
"Yes, he has been informed on everything, we will be landing in just 2 hours. He has made sure no one will be there waiting and he will personally escort us to drop Bulma off."
"Good, I'm going to get some food, make sure the men are ready to land and are briefed of the current situation. I want not a word getting out about Bulma."
"Yes sire."
I know this chapter was short but it's just kind of some filler. Still not sure where I want this story to go yet lol I'm pretty much winging each chapter I write, although that has been the way I write all of my stories. Reviews, questions, comments, and helpful criticism is always welcome! I'm rather enjoying this story! Might be my favorite one so far…hmmmm maybe….
